Ask Me Anything  

Audrey, Detroit:

I write, I read, I edit, and I drink way too much coffee and tea, but that's what makes me a writer who is always improving, always growing and always getting better.

“Substitute 'damn' every time you're inclined to write 'very;' your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.” - Mark Twain

The Power of Seeing Earth from Space →

“From the moon, the Earth is so small and so fragile, and such a precious little spot in that Universe, that you can block it out with your thumb. Then you realize that on that spot, that little blue and white thing, is everything that means anything to you — all of history and music and poetry and art and death and birth and love, tears, joy, games, all of it right there on that little spot that you can cover with your thumb. And you realize from that perspective that you’ve changed forever, that there is something new there, that the relationship is no longer what it was.” —Rusty Schweickart

I have always been inspired by this quote. The Universe is more than ‘you and me.’ We are nothing but a barely visible speck in a much, much greater picture. Remember that the next time a bad hair day gets you down.
